US President Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, was the target of an assassination plot by a terrorist, it has been revealed.

As per New York Post, First Daughter Ivanka Trump was the target of a plot by an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) trained terrorist.

It was part of a twisted plan to avenge the president taking out his mentor, according to reports.

Sources claimed that recently captured Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, 32, made a “pledge” to kill Ivanka and even had a blueprint of her Florida home.

Allegedly, the Iraqi national was allegedly targeting the Trump family in response to the killing of Iranian military chief Qasem Soleimani.

Soleimani was killed in a US drone strike in Baghdad six years ago, on Trump’s orders.

Al-Saadi was close to Soleimani and looked up to him as a father figure after the death of his own dad, according to Qanbar.

A former deputy military attaché in the Iraqi embassy in Washington, Entifadh Qanbar, told The Post that “after Qasem was killed, he [Al-Saadi] went around telling people ‘we need to kill Ivanka to burn down the house of Trump the way he burned down our house’”.

“We heard that he had a plan of Ivanka’s house in Florida,” Qanbar added. A second source also confirmed Al-Saadi’s plot to kill Ivanka.

The chilling threats made against Trump's family

On X, Al-Saadi also posted a picture of a map showing the enclave in Florida where Ivanka and husband Jared Kushner have a $24 million home.

It was made alongside a chilling threat in Arabic which translates to: “I say to the Americans look at this picture and know that neither your palaces nor the Secret Service will protect you. We are currently in the stage of surveillance and analysis. I told you, our revenge is a matter of time.”

Al-Saadi was arrested in Turkey on May 15 and extradited to the US where he is charged with 18 attacks and attempted attacks throughout Europe and the United States, per the Department of Justice.

He is reportedly a high-ranking figure in Iraq-Iran terror circles, and according to the DoJ, was responsible for attacks on US and Jewish targets including the firebombing of the Bank of New York Mellon in Amsterdam in March, the stabbing of two Jewish victims in London in April and a shooting at the US consulate building in Toronto, also in March.

The Department of Justice also said that he also “planned, coordinated” and allegedly took responsibility for attacks against Jewish people including the bombing of a synagogue in Liège, Belgium, the arson of a temple in Rotterdam in March, as well as various other foiled counter-attacks in the US in response to the current conflict in the Middle East.

The suspected terrorist is also allegedly linked to Lebanese paramilitary force Hezbollah.

He is currently in solitary confinement at Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, which houses other high-profile inmates like accused CEO shooter Luigi Mangione and captured Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro.
